I heard no one was fighting on here
I am 100% on board with tomorrow’s economic boycott, but my toddler is also exercising her “personal liberties” and we may have reached an impasse.

Getting offended when someone calls something you like “millennial-coded” is extremely boomer-coded.

“I’m going to hold your hand when I say this” is the “Bless your heart,” of the modern age. Passive aggressive and patronizing af.

I didn’t love the new White Lotus, but I still can’t wait for more, if that makes any sense.

The revolution may not be televised, but it will be live-streamed 🙌

The fact that so many people are still talking about Kendrick’s performance means it was a success 🙌

Also been thinking a lot about “radical” generosity lately. Why is it so crazy to just share what we have without expecting anything in return?

Forcing myself to post in an attempt to combat my perfectionist paralysis.

A loving note to authors who include riddles, puzzles or mistranslated texts in their narratives; maybe don’t make the solution to the problem the TITLE of the work.

That is, assuming you value dramatic tension.

I had fun with the first book once the dragons showed up, but really struggled with Iron Flame.

Fourth Wing is more like Top Gun meets How to Train Your Dragon with the faculty of Hogwarts and the political landscape of The Hunger Games.

Despite every algorithm’s best guess, Fourth Wing was not a satisfying follow-up to ACOTAR.

I’m new to romantasy, but are the power dynamics always like this? It feels like the male leads are all, “I could straight up murder everyone in this room just by blinking, but it’s only butterfly kisses for you, darling, because your exquisite mortal body is as vulnerable as a soft shell crab.”

I got this potato expecting it to be more of an apple. It was not red or yellow or green and wasn’t sweet at all. Instead, it was brown and had rough skin and I was supposed to cook it. I’m not a fan of potatoes. DNF.

Did not anticipate Violet Sorrengail’s ribs playing such a strong supporting role in this series.

Seriously, if someone with a Kindle could do a Ctl F for the word “ribs” I’d love to know the exact number of mentions. It feels like a notable amount…

Every soul commended to Malek goes straight to Wendy.

Currently moving on to Fourth Wing, because apparently the algorithm demands it. I know this is probably an audiobook problem, but every damn time I hear his full name, )which is a lot throughout the book,) I picture; “It’s me! Xaden Riorson!”

Back on my ACOTAR bullshit; curious to know how SJM looked at this humble grain, flanked by its henchmen—quinoa and farro—thought, “There’s the name of my most imperious and terrifying villain.”

After binging the series and scouring the internet for of all the memes, this is the one that sent me running to the bathroom from laughing too hard.

And after ACOSF, every time Nesta comes up, WAP starts playing in my head.

Here we are—an up-to-date Night Court
April 6, 2024 at 5:06 AM
Okay, so resurfacing after finishing the books and I realize my Night Court joke was premature.
April 6, 2024 at 4:31 AM
Am I the only one reading ACOTAR who can’t help but chuckle at any mention of the ruthless Night Court?
